Description

As painted by Artisan Cinen, 399 AV.

With laugh lines creasing his square-jawed face and deep-set stormy grey eyes showing a strange intensity, the Dwarf stands tall next to an iron gate, a petite grey-green katydid on his shoulder. A mining belt circles his chain hauberk, while thick-soled mountain boots shod his feet, indicating that the Dwarf is ready for both a hard day's work and a hard day's fight. The Himineldar Shel mountains rise in the background, their ice-covered peaks reflecting the sunset in a dazzling display of fire and ice.
"Kraggur Kveldcharn, Defender of Forfedhdar, and Gwaal the Katydid."

The Pillar of Kraggur

Five aspects are carved into the granite pillar.

The name “Kraggur” is carved into the base of the pillar as the first aspect, with “Kraggath-mag, Kreggath-mag, Kreggur-mag” cut underneath it. Intertwined runes indicating 'male' and 'Gemfire' are marked next to the name. More recent symbols include a pair of shackles, a mining spike, and a beer stein marked 'Biiskbowr'.
Above the name is a raven circling a mountain peak, the sun rising high above it, forming the second aspect.
The third aspect is the lunar symbol for the evening star. The carving is fairly primitive, but a more sophisticated image of a welkin has been added, the evening star serving as its eye.
A blank spot has been left for the fourth aspect.
Fifth is an intricately carved open book, resting atop a pile of scrolls. A forging hammer and a pickaxe lean against opposite sides of the scroll pile.
The sixth, and final aspect, is a raven, symbolized in three ways: first is a carving of a raven; second are holes drilled forming the constellation of the raven; third is the lunar sigil for the raven.
